286 Lou Room felt a great deal of worry
At the beginning of October of the second year of Jingkang, the third southern invasion of the Jin soldiers was in full swing, the army of more than 300,000 was divided into east and west roads, and the east route army was still under the leadership of Zong Wang and Zong Han, taking the old road, going south from Yanyun, breaking through Hebei, attacking the Yellow River defense line, and then taking the Tokyo defense line, attacking Yingtianfu, the seat of the emperor of the Song State.
The Western Route Army, under the leadership of Wanyan Lou Room, took the route of Datong and Taiyuan all the way south, and directly took the land of Guanzhong, the most important source of troops in the Song Dynasty and the location of the strongest corps.
After all, only the Shaanxi army has the ability to fight head-on with the Jin army, of course, Yue Tuo's army from Jiangnan is an exception, and there is no exception in ten thousand.
Therefore, after almost all the strategic mobile forces and strategic materials were tilted towards the Western Route Army, when the Eastern Route Army was blocked by the army led by Song Dongdong Zong Ze on the north bank of the Yellow River, the progress of the Western Route Army was very smooth, so smooth that it was a little strange for Wanyan Lou Room, starting from Datong to Taiyuan on the road, there was no resistance from the Song Army, and only a few civilian armed forces attacked the Jin Army with inferior equipment, and often they were killed.
What about Song's main force?
Song's intelligence ability is not weak, Dajin went south with such fanfare, and he had no intention of hiding it from the Song army, and it took a lot of time to go all the way south. When Taiyuan was completely taken, Wanyan Lou believed that the Song army must have obtained the information. But why, Song Jun didn't react at all? And what about their main forces? And what about the mighty Northwest Corps?
The answer was soon revealed. From the first day of Taiyuan's southward journey, Lou Room encountered a frontal challenge from a Song army of more than 20,000 people, and Lou Room, who was not marching fast, did not want to fight quickly, looking at the extremely powerful momentum of this army, he knew that this was one of the Northwest Corps, the main ace of the Song Army, so what was their combat effectiveness? Lou Mu sent 10,000 soldiers to challenge the Song army, and the Song army immediately met the battle, and the two sides fought from the middle of the day to sunset, regardless of victory or defeat. There were casualties, Lou Mu nodded, the uneasiness in his heart gradually subsided, and he ordered to camp on the spot and fight again tomorrow.
That night was fine, both sides were resting, and the next day, the two sides had another day of fighting, this day. The disadvantages of the Song army were gradually exposed - they were inferior to the elite soldiers of the Jin army in physical strength, and when the battle reached the middle of the second day, the physical strength of the Song army began to be exhausted, and the main general surnamed Wu of the Song army personally went into battle to stabilize the position. But the disadvantages of the Song army could no longer be concealed, Lou Room smiled slightly, and ordered another team of 10,000 people to attack. Completely crush the Song army, and sigh at the same time. The northwest soldiers of the Song army were really strong, but they were still inferior to the Dajin army in terms of physical strength. Therefore, this battle is in hand.
The resistance of the Western Army was indeed very timely, and it was very strong, so that more than 20,000 Jin troops lost thousands of men and horses, of course, the Western Army itself also lost thousands of men and horses, so here, Lou Room did not have any doubts, he thought that this was the strength of the Western Army, and he did not look at the loss of thousands of people, even if most of them were female real soldiers.
The Song army soon couldn't support it and began to retreat, but the retreat was also orderly, as well as the response of the reserves, the cover and suppression of the divine arm bow, and the pursuit of the Jin army was blocked.
On the third day, Lou Mu's march went smoothly, and along the way, he repelled many official or civilian blocking armies of the Song army, and advanced for more than 100 miles, and then Lou Mu ordered to stop the march and began to implement his new strategic thinking, that is, step by step, steady and steady, and if he came, he would not leave, and he should prepare enough foundation for the complete capture of the land in Guanzhong, so the soldiers and horses scattered to attack the resistance forces of the Song Dynasty and the cities of resistance, and it was very necessary to pull out these strongholds one by one.
Obviously, the Song army was very uncomfortable with this, and after fleeing for a while, he hurriedly returned and then fought with the Jin army, and was killed and retreated by Lou Mur, and then rushed back to be defeated, after repeating it several times, the corners of Lou Mur's mouth had a confident smile, and he began to believe that his tactics and tactics were correct, and the Song army was unprepared for this and was very uncomfortable, so the Song army was bound to fail.
After that, however, everything began to deviate from Lou's tracks.
Lou Room marched to the night of the outskirts of Yan'an Mansion, and suddenly was attacked by the night of the Song army, the scope was not large, the strength was not large, and the intensity was not large, but the combat effectiveness was very strong, arson and burned a tent of the Jin army, burned to death and injured many people, but did not hurt the root of the Jin soldiers, although Lou Room was angry, but did not do much, just ordered the night vigil soldiers to pay more attention to the vigil, but it didn't take long, the Song army actually attacked the night twice, this time the Jin soldiers really did not have any preparations, no one could have imagined that the Song army would attack the night twice, As a result, this time, the Jin soldiers really suffered heavy losses, because the night attack troops of the Song army were full of 5,000 people.
One-third of the tents were burned down by the Song army, more than 1,000 people were killed in the chaos, and the most serious loss was that the captain of a 10,000-person team was killed, a very strong Jurchen general, and he was very good at fighting, he was beheaded by the Song army, and when he died, it was said that he had not woken up and slept in a daze.
Lou Room was furious, and immediately ordered to behead the night watch generals and more than a hundred night watch soldiers who did not die, and ordered that the night watch soldiers be increased to 3,000 people in the future, and they will work in shifts in the first half of the night and the second half of the night.
Lou Room's reaction was very fast, more than double Yue Fei's estimate, Yue Fei estimated that it would take two days to make a vigil change, and the result was made in one day, but this was within Yue Xuan's expectations, so the second plan was launched, the army led by Wu Jue retreated a little bit, and gave up the position to the army led by Zhang Xian, after Lou Room led the army into the mountainous area, Wu Jue led the army to disperse into the mountains and forests, and Zhang Xian took over the task of night attack.
When marching during the day, Lou Room found himself constantly attacked, sometimes within an hour will be attacked by the Song army from suddenly out of nowhere, a rain of arrows or this rush after the Song army quickly retreated into the jungle, so that the Jin army could not pursue, or the pursuing army was gone, Lou Room had to order to stop the pursuit, strictly guarded, before the army marched, the scouts must scatter out, there is no place for the scouts to determine, the army does not go, if the army is gone but something happens, then the scouts will not be spared.
In this way, Yue Flip also has a way to deal with it, there is a gap between the arrival of the scouts and the departure and the arrival of the army, and within that gap, it is when the Song army is ambushed in place, so Lou Room was attacked by a person who wants to die, and the number of troops is still large, when he knows, it has been a long time, and the sneak attack of the Song army was a great success, so that the Jin army was killed and wounded by the Song army near Yan'an Mansion by thousands of people, so that under the premise that the main force of the Song army has not been officially engaged, Lou Room lost more than 10,000 soldiers.
The continuous attacks during the day greatly slowed down the marching speed of the Jin army, and when eating, they would be afraid to eat normally, because the time of eating happened to be the peak of the Song army's attack, so that Lou Room had to let some people eat first, some people defended, and then some people ate again, in turn, which greatly slowed down the marching speed of Lou Room, Lou Room did not think about counterattacking, but no matter how many people the pursuing force had, they never came back, if the main force cleared the mountains, It is inevitable that it will not be attacked by the Song army.
Lou Room is in a predicament, and the most terrible thing is not daylight, it is night! Every night, the Song army attacked the camp uninterruptedly, lest it make a huge noise, and each time it carried gunpowder bombs to make it explode, so that the Jin army was shocked, panicked, unable to sleep, and even suffered heavy casualties, and the Song army's night attack was not a fixed period, sometimes several times a night, sometimes several days, but the Jin army therefore spent a lot of troops to keep vigil, and even prepared to counterattack, therefore, the energy of the Jin army was greatly consumed.
It wasn't until Lou Room witnessed his soldiers being sleepy during the march and even fell asleep on the spot that Lou Room suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a big mistake, because the soldiers were constantly attacked by the Song army at night, and naturally they couldn't rest, and every time the Song army sneak attacked, there would be a lot of movement, and hundreds of thousands of troops couldn't sleep, and there was no way to rest effectively several times a night, so as long as the night attack of the Song army happened, it would be a great blow to the energy of the Jin army.
The combat effectiveness of the Jin army in the day is weaker and weaker, many times Lou Room has found that the elite army was killed by the Song Army's sneak attack on the troops and could not stabilize the position, which was impossible before, until there was one of the most thrilling times when a brave Song general led a large group of cavalry to surpass the Lou Room Chinese army, and found that the enemy could not be broken and withdrew like a whirlwind, the whole process of the Jin Army was extremely slow to react, and even could not prevent effective resistance at all, after the war, many soldiers fell asleep, Lou Room decided, had to make changes, at the same time, He was also aware of Song Jun's sinister intentions.
This place is located in the mountains, it is a wilderness, there are no Song people to live, so the Song army will not have any worries, but Lou Room is different, the army is stationed together, the Song Army can kill and then withdraw, but Lou Room can't do it, Lou Room can't retaliate, send an army to run a long distance, the result is that there is no return or a few people fled back in embarrassment, crying that they were surrounded by the sneak attack of the Song Army's aunt troops.
It seems that as long as they pass through, there are ambushes of the Song army everywhere, Lou Mur has a pain in his brain for this, really, his brain hurts, it hurts terribly, he can't adapt to such a shameless way of fighting in the Song army, in the past, the Song army would only flee or fight to the death, but now, the Song army has also played tactical tactics, or has never seen a tactical tactic that does not know how to defend, and Lou Mur's established tactics seem to be going in the opposite direction......
